(REGISTER RINGS AS DRAWER OPENS, WHIT IS TALKING TO A CUSTOMER AS HE GETS CHANGE) And ... Twenty-five cents is your change. CUSTOMER: Thanks, Whit. EUGENE: (APPROACHING) Mr. Whittaker ... WHIT: Yes, Eugene? EUGENE: I was wondering if it would inconvenience you for me to utilize the computer in your office for a short time while I'm on my break. CONNIE: (FROM THE KITCHEN) Oh, brother.

Normally, I'd use one of the computers at the college but lately they're all taken by the time I get there. WHIT: That's all right. You're welcome to it. EUGENE: I have hopes of buying a computer of my own so I won't have to impose upon you any longer. I've been saving for quite some time and am now only one hundred dollars short of the money I need. CONNIE: (COMING OUT FROM THE KITCHEN) You're gonna spend a hundred bucks on a dumb computer? Good grief! EUGENE: * Computers aren't dumb, Ms. Kendall. And it's more than a hundred. You obviously haven't grasped the need for computers in our day and time. CONNIE: Nobody needs a computer, Eugene. There are a lot more important things to get. EUGENE: Such as? CONNIE: Such as a car.

Mom and I have been talking about it and if I can save up another hundred dollars, I'm gonna buy a brand new 1967 Ford. EUGENE: A brand new 1967 Ford? Quite a contradiction in terms. (SNORTS) And you scoff at me! CONNIE: What's wrong with buying a car? It looks better on the road than a computer. EUGENE: I don't ride my computer, Ms. Kendall. I ride a bike. They're safe, economical and healthy. CONNIE: Oh, right, and you come in all sweaty. Give me an air- conditioned car any day. EUGENE: (GROANS) Mr. Whittaker -- what can I do? It's like casting the proverbial pearls before swine. WHIT: (WAVING THEM OFF) Oh, no you don't.

CONNIE: What do you mean? WHIT: Today's receipts tell me I should have one hundred and eighty-six dollars and sixty-nine cents but I only have one hundred twenty six dollars and sixty-nine cents. CONNIE: You're missing sixty dollars? WHIT: Yep. I better count it again. CONNIE: I'll look around. Maybe it fell on the floor.

EUGENE: Are you positive, Mr. Whittaker? WHIT: I'm double-checking now. CONNIE: I don't see anything back here. (AS SHE LOOKS) Wait! I found it-- (BEAT) Oh. It's a wad of napkins. EUGENE: Green? CONNIE: Left over from Christmas . If it wasn't dropped, what could have happened to it? I mean, you don't think someone stole the money, do you, Whit? WHIT: No, of course not. EUGENE: Besides, who could possibly steal it? There are only three people with the key to the register: Mr. Whittaker, myself and you. Unless, of course, one of us forgot to lock the register when it wasn't attended.

(BEAT, FINISHING HIS COUNT) One-hundred-twenty-six- dollars-and-sixty-nine-cents . We're still sixty dollars short. CONNIE: This is creepy. Who would do such a thing? WHIT: We don't know that anyone did, Connie. EUGENE: I'm very conscientious about locking the register and keeping the keys on my person. CONNIE: Well, it wasn't me! I make sure to lock up, too! WHIT: (WITH GREAT ASSURANCE) The money will turn up. Maybe the register receipts are printing wrong. I'll check it in the morning. Don't be so suspicious. EUGENE: I don't think it's unreasonable to be suspicious in this day and age, Mr. Whittaker. WHIT: Unreasonable or not, the fact is we know most of the folks who come in here. I can't believe any of them would take Page 7 Adventures in Odyssey script for episode Suspicious Minds The script looks exactly like the one used by the actors in the studio to record this show.

EUGENE: Yes, but any of us are capable of stealing -- don't you think? WHIT: True, but that doesn't mean we will steal. These are our friends you're talking about, Eugene. I'm sure there's a simple explanation for this. We'll find the money. EUGENE: However -- just to play the sleuth for a moment -- since it is obvious that we didn't take the money, someone may have had time to take Connie's keys and -- CONNIE: (AN OUTBURST) I didn't leave -- !!! EUGENE: -- Pardon, pardon, beg bardon -- a mis-statement on my part. Someone may have had time to somehow take a key to the register and have a copy made. Unless you plan to have the register key and lock changed immediately, I think we would be wise to watch the register. WHIT: Well .

  • St. Mary's Stroke Center Keeps Elvis Tribute Singer in the Groove
    St. Mary’s stroke center keeps Elvis tribute singer in the groove BY MARY JANE FINE [email protected] Oh, it’d be easy to use all the Elvis clichés about Al Maeyens’ recent stroke, to say he was “All Shook Up” or in “Trouble” or that it was almost “Too Much,” or that his wife, Dee, could’ve been in “Heartbreak Hotel” if not for her husband’s “Good Luck Charm.” Easy, yes. Too easy. Because a stroke is serious business. Deadly serious. “He was paralyzed, unable to speak, deteriorating COURTESY PHOTO: Al Maeyens likes to sing the rapidly,” recalls Dr. Ali R. Malek, who treated Mr. less-known Elvis songs when performing as Elvis Maeyens at St. Mary’s Medical Center. “He had a and The Memphis Beat. blockage in his basal artery, the main artery that feeds the brain.” Mr. Maeyens, who is an Elvis Presley tribute singer – “Don’t say ‘Elvis impersonator,’” he says, “that sounds demeaning” – well, he doesn’t remember much about the day his life almost ended, the day he now calls “that extraordinary event in my life.” It was November of 2012. He had an Elvis booking scheduled for December 2. He’d been having vertigo and what he calls “shimmering auras” in his eyes. He visited an Ear/Nose/Throat (ENT) specialist, who diagnosed an inner-ear problem. He returned home. The dizziness continued. He went to a nearby hospital ER, got a CT scan, another inner- ear diagnosis and a prescription for Antivert, an antihistamine that treats the symptoms of motion sickness.

  • WDAM Radio's History of Elvis Presley
    Listeners Guide To WDAM Radio’s History of Elvis Presley This is the most comprehensive collection ever assembled of Elvis Presley’s “charted” hit singles, including the original versions of songs he covered, as well as other artists’ hit covers of songs first recorded by Elvis plus songs parodying, saluting, or just mentioning Elvis! More than a decade in the making and an ongoing work-in-progress for the coming decades, this collection includes many WDAM Radio exclusives – songs you likely will not find anywhere else on this planet. Some of these, such as the original version of Muss I Denn (later recorded by Elvis as Wooden Heart) and Liebestraum No. 3 later recorded by Elvis as Today, Tomorrow And Forever) were provided by academicians, scholars, and collectors from cylinders or 78s known to be the only copies in the world. Once they heard about this WDAM Radio project, they graciously donated dubs for this archive – with the caveat that they would never be duplicated for commercial use and restricted only to musicologists and scholarly purposes. This collection is divided into four parts: (1) All of Elvis Presley’s charted U S singles hits in chronological order – (2) All of Elvis Presley’s charted U S and U K singles, the original versions of these songs by other artists, and hit versions by other artists of songs that Elvis Presley recorded first or had a cover hit – in chronological order, along with relevant parody/answer tunes – (3) Songs parodying, saluting, or just mentioning Elvis Presley – mostly, but not all in chronological order – and (4) X-rated or “adult-themed” songs parodying, saluting, or just mentioning Elvis Presley.

  • Introducing Elvis Presley
    Chapter 1 Introducing Elvis Presley In This Chapter ▶ Outlining Elvis’s place in American history ▶ Summarizing Elvis’s life ▶ Tracking Elvis’s popularity from beginning to end n the one hand, Elvis Presley needs no introduction, because his name Oand face are recognized around the world as the ultimate celebrity. Imitators re-create his act; late-night comedians joke about him; cable chan- nels rerun his movies; and merchandisers exploit his image on everything from T-shirts to lamps. On the other hand, the reasons for his fame have become lost in the trappings of celebrity, especially for younger generations born after his death on August 16, 1977. For the original fans, who have remained loyal for over 50 years, Elvis earned his reputation as the King of Rock ’n’ Roll; for others, discovering why he deserved his fame and a place in American cultural history may be a revelation. In this chapter, I introduce you to Elvis Presley through the high points of his life and career, including his post-death popularity. This chapter sets up an extensive exploration of Elvis Presley — the cultural icon — that details the events of his life, explains the significance of his music, and contemplates his meaning to American pop culture. COPYRIGHTED MATERIAL Identifying a Cultural Icon Almost everyone knows that Elvis Presley was a famous singer, but many people don’t fully understand what he contributed to popular music to earn his widespread fame. Elvis combined different types of music to form a style called rockabilly, which became one of the key sounds in rock ’n’ roll.
